Cons
No benefits, horrible pay, and you are expected to work an automatic minimum of 45 hours. That is without overtime, bonus, or additional PTO. You also get very little PTO. Very dismissive leadership group. No encouragement for IDP and ARE completion. No support, period.

Advice to Senior Management
Value your employees and be respectful to women. Pay your employees what they are worth and give some benefits. There is major discrepancy between leadership and interns...spread the wealth at least a little bit. Acknowledge your staff when you see them; ignoring them and grimacing at them for saying hi in public is not helpful.

Pros
The industry experience you gain and the professional contacts you make are very good, however most employees get burned out rather quick.

Cons
This firm's philosophy is to hire as many recent college graduates as possible, immerse them in a project day one, and then wait to see which ones can handle the pressure. If a person makes it through the first project successfully, its game on. He or she is given two or three more projects all at once that are at least as demanding as the first, and so on. Also, this job is definitely not the 9 to 5 for which one is paid.

Advice to Senior Management
Consider your management structure next time cuts need to be made. One of you is worth three or four interns. Also, scale back your monday morning gatherings for PMs and Officers. They have to be a significant burden financially. Consider this, 20+ PMs and Officers wasting 3 to 4 hours each monday going over project status reports. Each man hour costs the company at least $50 per hour including benefits. You should be able to accomplish similar tracking with a daily logs and a weekly dashboard report.
